Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy remains one of the most fascinating figures of the 20th century - an iconic First Lady who brought elegance, sophistication, and a cultivated cultural sensibility to the White House. But her formative early adult years provide a glimpse into a headstrong, confident young woman of great intelligence and ambition trying to find her way in the world.

Carl Sferrazza Anthony, author of a new book, Camera Girl: The Coming of Age of Jackie Bouvier Kennedy, offers a compelling look at the future First Lady in her years as an adventurous college student, as the Washington Times-Herald’s inquiring camera girl, and as a vibrant single woman who had come to date and eventually marry the dashing U.S. Senator from Massachusetts, John F. Kennedy.

Anthony is the author of a dozen books about presidents’ wives and families, including As We Remember Her: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis in the Words of Her Friends and Family, The Kennedy White House: Family Life & Pictures, 1961-1963 and the two-volume First Ladies: The Saga of the Presidents’ Wives and Their Power, 1789-1990.
